Ōtara is in a fruit and vegetable lockdown after a facialis fruit fly was found.
It's the first time this particular fruit fly - which is native to Tonga - has been found in New Zealand, and it could be devastating to crops.
How has the fruit fly discovery affected you? Are you worried about purchasing local fruit and veges from the area? Will you still go to the Ōtara markets this weekend?

Backbone tests the limits of the human body, featuring jaw-dropping physical feats, hair-raising acrobatics, and moments of hilarious absurdity.
An acrobatic marvel that has to be seen to be believed. Sweaty, sinuous, and seriously impressive.
Neighbourly has 10 double passes to giveaway to the premiere of Backbone, on Thursday, 14 March at 7.30pm. Simply like or thank this post to go into the draw to win!

WHAT OUR CUSTOMERS SAY:
“Thank you so much Tim. It has been such an blessing to have the extra space to sort my life out at an extremely affordable price. Lovely, big, clean, dry and handy container, which I could load straight from car/trailer into my container, made the process fast and efficient. Felt like part of the family, safe and secure. Thank you again. Ta kime.” K Evans
“We have been using Storeit4less for the past 18mths. The facilities are amazing, so close to the motorway, very safe and secure location. The storage containers are clean, tidy and easy to access as you can park right outside them. Tim has been such a pleasure to deal with, he is always happy to accommodate our requests and provides a service above and beyond what we expected. Would highly recommend Storeit4less to anyone needing short or long term storage for personal or business use”. C & F Huia
